Bug Description
I adapted this patch from a patch in the Ubuntu readahead package. I think the original patch was made by Scott James Remnant <email address hidden>.
readahead uses the same license as preload.
In readahead, the file list is sorted by device, block and inode. That should decrease seeking.
